Seriously, great job guys and gals. Those epic cloaks are, bar none, the best looking cloaks I have seen for any game, much less any MMO.If you haven't seen them, you can here (spoiler alert: It's cooler to see them the first time after you've earned them): <a href="http://eq2.eqtraders.com/articles/article_page.php?article=q36&menustr=060020260000" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://eq2.eqtraders.com/articles/a...tr=060020260000</a>

They really are very attractive cloaks. Gratz to all the tradeskillers that earn them.
<p>I saw a complaint or 2 about the provisioner cloak, and to be honest having seen the screen shots I was a little iffy about it. In game though, it's perfect. </p><p>Zoom in and you can see the detail of the cloak, and the extra touches like the sweat and dirt stains in the creases. I might be biased, since it's a troll in plate armour thats wearing it, but it looks like a cloak a hard working cook would have. You almost see the sweat dripping off the end of his nose to give the cabbage stew that extra little flavour. <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" /></p><p>In conclusion, an excellent job. I can't wait to get the weaponsmith one.</p>

I'm really fond of the Alchemist cloak.. As an plate wearing Armorer however, i'm not sure that i'm too fond of how overly-shiny my epic cloak is...

As previously stated I love the grubby provisioners cloak on my troll SK, and I'm looking forward to the WS cloak for my bruiser (who is showing the rhino hide status armour from FP). On the other hand, assuming he ever gets that high, I'm not sure the jeweler cloak will fit the style of my brigand, who I keep in dark dull armour.

<p>The provisioner cloak makes me cry.. I was in love until I saw a spoon on the back. <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>My prov. is a Knight for crying out loud, not some sissy full-time chef!</p><p>But they are still VERY beautiful.</p>

<p>Yeah these cloaks did turn out awesome.</p><p>SOE needs to take whomever designed these cloaks and have him/her re-vamp the VP dropped cloaks, or T8 raid cloaks in general....they are horrible.</p>

<p>Personally, I am in love with the Alchemist cloak! Just behind that for me is the Armorsmith cloak. Both are very nice cloaks in my opinion.</p>

Have to say I dislike the tailor cape. It got shoved into my apartment vault. That said I think most of the capes look hokey. I cringe when I see anyone showing them. So my opinion probably doesn't count.

I like Jeweler the best, with armorsmith next with those plates. Tailor is last ick. Being an Alchemist mine isn't bad, though not giving up Norrath cloak that saves me in a fall hehe.
